Green Leaf Salad With Bleu Cheese Dressing

Green Leaf Salad With Bleu Cheese Dressing is on of my favourite summer salad. The hit of the blue cheese with the sweet buttermilk, cottage cheese and yoghurt make the dressing a thing of beauty. I actually use low fat cheese and yoghurt so don’t even feel guilty eating lots of it!! Serve as a salad, side dish and even a main dish for a lovely refreshing and filling dish.
